AKAI GX-F95 (1981) | Auto Computer Tuning

 

Using Akai's unique technologies such as Super-GX 3-head and Quartz Lock 2 Motor DD system (BLM-100) the GX-F95 was introduced as the top model in 1981. The Super-GX head of the GX-F95 is using a separate recording head (4 μ gap) and separate reproducing head (1 μ gap). For the capstan drive, a high-grade original brushless quartz-lock DD motor is used. Strong torque and excellent rotational accuracy are realized by a three phase full-wave drive system with Hall element position detection and FG servo + quartz-lock circuit with high accuracy and quick response.

In addition, in order to stabilize high rotational accuracy, it is equipped with a quartz lock, which is phase control by crystal oscillation, and it is combined with a direct drive mechanism to maintain high accuracy. The recording  amplifier uses a DC amplifier to minimize distortion during recording, and the playback amplifier uses a dual FET. The GX-F95 is also equipped with an auto-tuning computer that has been developed to extract 100% of the characteristics of various tapes and to record and reproduce them under optimum conditions. A microcomputer analyzes the characteristics of each tape and commands the deck for the optimum bias, equalizer and recording sensitivity. Further there is a electronic digital tape counter, illuminated buttons and 2-color 24-segment FL bar meter with peak hold. The peak hold time is approximately one second, and a VU / peak switching switch is installed. Two types of cassette lids are included. In addition to the aluminum type, there is also an acrylic type that allows the tape to be seen. The GX-F95 was available in both silver and black at an original sale price of 2.400 DM in Germany.
